Furch Red DLX Gc-Ll Alpine Spruce/Malaysian Blackwood Acoustic Guitar with Anthem Pickup | New
The Red Deluxe Gc-LI a is designed for discerning acoustic players who seek maximum playing comfort and the pure, unplugged character of a finely crafted instrument. The soundboard of the guitar is made of carefully selected Alpine spruce, whose clarity, headroom, and dynamic responsiveness are further enhanced by our innovative individual voicing process. The back and sides are crafted from Malaysian blackwood, a tonewood prized for its balanced tonal character, strong midrange presence, and rich harmonic content. As with all models in the Red Series, not only the top but also the back soundboard is individually voiced, resulting in a highly responsive and tonally refined instrument. Together, these materials produce a full, dynamic tone with articulate lows, clear and focused mids, and sparkling highs, making the instrument equally well-suited for fingerstyle playing as well as strumming.
To further support the natural acoustic performance of the instrument, the Booster Soundport acoustic resonator placed in the side of the body enhances sound projection and allows the player to perceive more of the guitar's resonance directly while playing. This results in a more immediate and immersive acoustic experience, particularly valued by players focused on the pure, unplugged sound of their instrument.
The luxurious, refined appearance of the Red Deluxe LI a is highlighted by our Full-Pore High-Gloss Finish, which enhances the resonance of the instrument while offering exceptional surface protection. The instrument features Hawaiian koa binding with a contrasting white line, abalone body purfling with black and white lines, and a koa wedge with contrasting lines at the tail. The premium rosette combines koa and abalone in a solid ring design, while the bridge and fretboard are made from figured ziricote. White pearl Roman numeral front inlays and linear side position markers further contribute to the instrument's sophisticated and distinctive visual identity.
Playing comfort is further elevated by the Bevel Duo ergonomic feature, crafted from Hawaiian koa and carefully integrated into both the top and back soundboard. This significantly reduces arm and rib pressure and ensures exceptional comfort even during prolonged playing sessions.
Hardshell case included.
